POESIA CRUDA (VOICES OF SCAMPIA)

Gli Irrecuperabili non Esistono (No One is Past Redemption)

by Davide Cerullo

Description

What does living in Scampia mean? Growing up in a poor and unloving family, succumbing to the temptation of earning easy money and changing the course of destiny. Davide Cerullo narrates this and more, following the story of people that, just like him, have managed to rise up above the enslaving world of Camorra. However, he keeps in mind the ones that haven’t made it, the ones that have fallen, caught in the nets of a system that doesn’t offer any way out. Love and hope, these are the common threads of a book that ties together different fates, intertwined among the streets of a neighbourhood as tormented as it is rich in humanity.

Author Biography

Davide Cerullo grew up in the Scampia’s Vele. Violence and the refusal of school education were his first steps towards the entrance in the illegal world. His imprisonment in Poggioreale and the reading of the Sacred Bible have been the compasses for his redemption.

A LITTLE BIT OF OUR HISTORY We are the  oldest literary agency based in Italy and operating worldwide. We are also one of the most dynamic and successful. The agency was founded in 1962 by Harald Kahnemann and Karin von Prellwitz with the purpose of promoting quality fiction and non-fiction worldwide and quickly established as one of the leading international rights mediators. Since 1964 the head office of the Agency has moved from Montevideo, Uruguay, to Rome, Italy, but it still keeps a close working relationship with the most authoritative Latin American publishers. 2014 has seen the opening of the German branch of the Agency, based in Munich. In its over 50 year activity Eulama has made a name for itself thanks to its reliability, its ability in dealing with international publishers, establishing and maintaining excellent working relationships with its partners. OUR PRESENT  For a company, 50 years of activity is like competing on a long distance run: you need endurance. And you need to know how to manage your strength. There will be times when you have to slow down your pace and muster your concentration - preparing to display it at its fullest. For then comes the time to push. Treasuring what the road so far has taught us, we are now pressing towards new horizons in the evolving landscape of the global market. Because now it's time to push. Now it's time to make things happen.
